Since 1969, our firm has built a trusted reputation for excellence, compassion, and results across Virginia and West Virginia. As we continue to grow, we are seeking an experienced Pre-Litigation Attorney, licensed in Virginia and/or West Virginia, to join our team and advocate for injury victims throughout the region.

This is an opportunity to handle meaningful personal injury cases from intake through pre-suit resolution while working alongside an established team dedicated to delivering exceptional client outcomes.

Your Mission

As a Pre-Litigation Attorney, you will take primary responsibility for managing personal injury cases from intake through demand and pre-suit settlement negotiations in Virginia and/or West Virginia, depending on your licensure. You will build strong case foundations, advocate for clients at every stage of the pre-suit process, and collaborate with a team committed to achieving results. You will work closely with the litigation team to ensure a seamless transition for any case that requires filing suit.

Key Responsibilities

Case Evaluation and Pre-Suit Strategy

  • Serve as primary attorney for personal injury cases during the pre-litigation phase, managing files from intake through demand, negotiation, and pre-suit resolution.
  • Evaluate liability, damages, and case value under Virginia and/or West Virginia law to develop sound pre-suit strategies.
  • Prepare and issue demand packages and supporting documentation to insurance carriers.
  • Negotiate settlements with insurance carriers and opposing counsel to maximize client recovery without the need for litigation.
  • Identify cases that warrant referral to the litigation team and ensure a smooth, well-documented handoff.

Case Management and Client Advocacy

  • Manage a caseload of personal injury matters, including motor vehicle accidents, premises liability, wrongful death, and other negligence claims.
  • Provide proactive, compassionate communication to clients while guiding them through the pre-litigation process.
  • Collaborate with investigators, medical providers, and other professionals to build well-documented, compelling claims.
  • Ensure all matters are handled efficiently, ethically, and in accordance with firm standards.
  • Work closely with paralegals and legal assistants to maintain case momentum and exceptional client service.

Team Collaboration

  • Partner with attorneys and leadership across the firm to align pre-suit strategy with overall case objectives.
  • Coordinate with the litigation team to ensure continuity for cases proceeding to suit in Virginia and/or West Virginia courts.
  • Mentor junior legal staff as appropriate and contribute to a collaborative team environment.
  • Participate in professional networking and community events that support the firm's reputation and relationships.
